The airport is located 30 minutes away from the city center.
You can take the Kızıltepe Minibuses departing from Diyarkapı Gate in order to get to the Mardin Airport from the city center. If you get off at Kızıltepe, all buses going in the Mardin direction will take you to the airport. You'll see the airport 100 meters away when you get off the minibus.
If you like to go with your private car, it's possible to get to the airport within 10-15 minutes by using Mardin-Kızıltepe highway and going in Kızıltepe direction. There's an 54 car capacity open parking lot in Mardin Airport and the tariff is standard as in every airport in Turkey.

Transportation from Manila Ninoy Aquino Airport to City Center
Manila Ninoy Aquino Airport, located 7 kilometers south of the center of Manila, is also quite crowded and complex, just like the city center. For this reason, there may be some difficulties in finding buses, especially during busy periods. You have several different bus alternatives on your journey to the city centre. The reason for this is the facilities and ticket prices provided by the buses to their passengers. In Manila, it is possible to reach the city center by paying a higher price for the ticket and using high-tech vehicles such as air conditioning and television. Normally, it takes 30 minutes between the city center and the airport, but when the traffic is crowded, this time can even go up to 2 hours.
In the Philippines, minibuses made from old American buses are called 'jeepneys' and these vehicles are widely used in urban transportation. Jeepneys also provide transportation between the airport and Baclatran.
Another means of transportation you can use in Manila is taxis. When you take a taxi from the airport, don't forget to negotiate the price with the driver if you don't want to pay too much in the traffic that has become a lock due to Jeepneys.
